The week Among tho Mines.

at MIR. Hanauer's Office the week is
reported as fair. Bingham came forward
in good shape, Tintic was heard from,
Alta sent down fair representation
and besides these there were the usual
shipments from the Park, and from
other quarters, the report of which was
not ready for the public. Quite a
number Of mines, that were at one
period frequently represented, have not
been heard from of late; this has not
been due, however, to a failure of the
ore bodies, but because of q preference
on the part of the owners not to ship
until a better price is paid by the ore
buyers. To this the ore men respond
that they have always paid reasonable
price; that if a desirable ore came into
the market, it always brought good
price, the ore was not of such quality
as to be quickly and economically
worked, the price paid, WAS, Of course,

The Bannock Shut Down

Reliable word comes from Era that
the stamps of the Bannock Company's
mill were hung up Saturday noon and
1t was the intention to close the mine at
midnight. This has been looked for
some little time; not because the mine
was doing poorly, for it is in excellent
condition, but for several other reasons
There appears to be united action
among the mines of the country to re-
duce wages from $3.50 to S.. That &C.
counts for the lay offs at the Idahoan,
the Queen of the Hills and other prom
inent mines everywhere. There are
also some side issues at Era-one being
the influence that the Granite Mountain
Company is exercising upon it.

CRm2s No. 2.

New deals are under way in the Camss
No. 2, the great mine on the gold belt
which was leased and bonded last July
for 100000 to Chase d Churchill, as
representatives of London company.
The bond expired on the 25th inst, and
is to be renewed. The Inter-IdGho says
there is no doubt about it. The sale
will probably not be consummated at
once-these large companies move slow
but sure-but the prospects are great
deal better than the public are aware of.
Certain facts which are connected with
it and which are not yet ready to be
made public property, will surprise as
well as give great encouragement to
Wood River people when they are
known.

The Osceola New Ditch.

A surveying party in charge of Brown
& Brooks, engineers of this city, leave
to-day with party to survey the new
ditch for the Osceola Gold Placers in
Nevada. This ditch is to take the water
from Lehman's Greek in Snake Valley,
along the mountain side distance of
about eighteen miles and then down
over the Osceola divide into the placer
claims, giving a direct fall of fully
1000 feet above the highest point on the
claims. This will give sufficient volume
of water and enable the working of the
claims for seven to nine months during
the year. The necessity for this addi-
tional canal is due to the fact that the
first one did not afford an ample sup
ply because it is situated on the west
side of the range, which gives less
supply than the east side, from which
the new canal will take the water. Just
as soon as the route is laid work will
begin on the canal and be pushed
through with all possible rapidity. 1t
will probably cost big sum and the
distribution of the money required to
Construct the canal, will give new life,
for the time at least, to South ern Utah

more than had anticipated. OF course,
winter IN that section is rapidly ap-
preaching, and We need not expect any
great developments before spring, but l
firmly believe that the disappearance of
the snow in 1888, will be the beginning
OF boom for the Park, and its influence
Will be felt in Salt Lake. Besides the
heavy shipments of the old reliables-
the Ontario, DAILY, Crescent and others
the old Empire, or Massachusetts, as
1t is now called, bids fair to loom into
prominence once more, and there are
several other properties might men
ton that will not be a great distance in
the rear. In addition to these, vast
amount of prospecting-s great por-
ton of which has been productive of
excellent results-has been done during
the past summer, not only in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the developed
properties, but also at ne in
several directions. Park Citj's )rt-
ance has been greatly underest.a ted.

To What Base Uses.

The site of the old Consolidated Vir-
ginia Mill is to be used henceforth as q
dump for waste rock, says the Reno
Gazette, the mill having been torn down
and removed elsewhere. Perhaps there
is not another mill in the world that
has turned into the Golfers of commerce
so many dollars as this one has. From
beneath its stamps Mackay picked up,
it is said. $50,0O0,OOO. and Fair, Flood
and O'Brien each nearly as much; hun
dreds of others were made enormously
rich, and thousands of miners and en-
ployes have received excellent wages for
a number of years. Now the mill is
pulled down, and the site used for a
waste dump. ITO what base uses do We
come at lastp'

a Three-Lerged Stool rs = Bank

The family of Benjamin Benny found
in three-legged stool in his house, in
this city .$67o in gold. 1t was supposed
that about that much in gold had been
left by him, but where it was secreted
no one could tell. Mother Barnes, the
seeress of Plumb Hollow, back of Brock
Vile, was consulted and she told the
inquirers that it was buried in the
garden. They dug up the premises and
tore up the floor in the house, but all to
no purpose. By accident the stool was
tipped over, when hole in the bottom
filed with plaster Of paris was d,s-
covered and upon investigation the
gold was found secreted in the bottom
of the stool. Mr.. Benny lived alone.
He lost $500 by the failure OF the Judson
bank ten years ago, and since that time
had been making his deposits in the
three-legged STOOL Ogdensburg Jour
nal.

THE INDIAN TRAIL.

In days long gone, where rocky cliffs
Rise far above the rivers vale
There was path of doubts and ifs
We called it then the Indian Trail.
In ragged line from top to base,
Ger shelving crag ana slippery shade,
By brush and brier and jumping place,
Wound up and down the Indian Trail
No girl, though nimble as a fawn,
No small boy cautious as a snail,
No COW. no dog, no man of Drawn,
Could safely tread that Indian Trail
Beyond the age OF childish toy,
Before the age Of gun and sail,
The fearless and elastic boy
Alone could use the Indian Trail.
Twas like great commencement day,
Like change from little fish to whale,
From fearful March to smiling May,
When first you climbed the Indian Trail
I've threaded many a devious maze
And Alpine path without q rail,
Yet never felt such tipsy craze
AS touched me on the Indian Trail
Twas easy by the white mans path
For all the lofty cliffs to scale;
But boys, returned from river bath,
Preferred to take the Indian Trail
All, that was years and years ago
To count them now would not avail
And every noble tree is low
That Swallowed then our Indian Trail.
They've stripped off every bush and flower
From Vincent to Deep Hollow dale;
he charm is sunk. the memory sour
There is no more an Indian Trail.
Dear boys, it takes away my breath,
To think how youth and genius fail!
Those grim pioneers, Time and Death,
Are baffied by no Indian rail
Far driven from our hunting ground,
On breezy hill and billowY swale,
Some wander stu, but some have found
The skyWard end of Indian Trail.
Life lends such comfort as 1t hath,
But labor wears and customs stsles;
I plod all day the White Mans Path
And dream at night of Indian Trails

MICE In HIS POCKET.
A st. Paul Preachers Embarrass
ing Position in the Pulpit.

Everybody has heard Daniel Web
ster's story of the New Hampshire par
son who put on pair of pants in which
the wasps had built a nest and did not
make the discovery until he was in the
pulpit. he had just announced the be-
ginning of the text, 1.-THE Spirit of the
Lord is in my mouth"-when the pesky
little fellows get in their work, and the
sentence was concluded with the ex-
clamatlon. land the devil is in nv
breaches !"
A st. Paul clergyman found himself
In nearly as embarrassing position as
the New Hampshire parson when last
Sunday he appeared in the pulpit wear
ing a pair of fall trousers which had
been hanging in the wardrobe during
the long summer vacation. The wasps
had not found them out, but motherIy
old mouse had. She had spread a nice
warm couch of seaiskin pluckings in the
right hand pocket of the trousers, into
which an even half-dozeu of one-day-
old micelets had been tucked away. 1t
is favorite gesture of the clergyman in
question when about to approach eli
max IN the sermon to thrust his right
hand in mis- trousers pocket and elevate
the left with the fore finger extended.
1t so happened on this particular day
that Elijah's translation was the theme.
The good prophet had been followed by
the eloquent preacher until the climax
of the ascension in chariot of fire was
reached, when the clergyman thrust his
right hand into his trousers pocket. The
audience, who had been hanging on the
burning words of the orator, were nc
little startled by the sudden collapse OF
the up-lifted left hand, the index finger
OF which was in the act of pointing to
the gates that were being lifted up to lei
the prophet in. The expression OF q
momentar' pang shot across the
preachers face as with convuIsive jerk
the other hand was brought up from
the pocket. A glance at its contents,
a squeezing together of the hand, the
light thud of something dropping be-
hind the pulpit, an amused smile on the
face for second and then the glowing
theme was resumed. Only those who
sat on the front row in the amen corner
heard what the preacher said when he
discovered the mice in his hand, well
III be doggoned!" was sufficient St
Paul Globe.
